What do you wish you knew before starting a practice transition?

Our Dr. Suzanne Ebert recently joined an episode of the Nobody Told Me That podcast with host Teresa Duncan. Together, they discussed how COVID has changed the dental practice landscape, shared tips on preparing for the unexpected – and told stories about some of the stranger situations they have encountered!

Listen to the episode to hear a great discussion on a variety of topics, and check out some of our related resources:

How you can help address access-to-care issues by serving smaller markets

Why small-market practices are recovering faster than urban practices (ADA Health Policy Institute data)

Why anyone thinking they might want to buy a practice should talk to a lender ASAP (Webinar: Selling Your Practice in the COVID-19 Era: Advice from Accounting Experts)

How to get your paperwork in order

How dentists who are “done” with clinical dentistry can mentor a younger doctor while selling their practice

How a letter of intent can help or hurt a transition (tips on drafting a good letter of intent that keeps things on track)

How to prepare staff for a transition – and incentivize them to help retain patients

How to bring on an associate the RIGHT way (and make sure you have space and production!)

When building a multi-practice empire might not be the best choice for you

How to educate yourself before finding the right person or practice so you can recognize a good thing

We recently met Dr. Joe, a recent graduate working in a DSO with dreams of buying his own dental practice. Dr. Joe joined ADA Practice Transitions to pursue his goals and is working with his ADA Advisor to narrow down the best path forward.

The “life” in “work-life” balance is very important to Dr. Joe and his family. The desire to build a good life for his family guides every step of his journey.

Practice Profile: Willing to Finance, Ready to Go

MountainPractice

Ready to buy? This seller is ready to retire – and willing to help finance your purchase! He’s even willing to help mentor you to succeed.

Operating since the 1950s, this profitable, 5-operatory, fee-for-service practice is one of the longest-established businesses in the community. It’s earned a great reputation – and with only one other practice in town, competition is limited.

We asked this seller what makes his practice and community a great place for a buyer. Read on for his responses:

What makes your practice unique? 
Ethics, compassion, longevity, and profitability. My family has provided healthcare at the same location since 1929. My grandfather was a physician in my office space and my father started the dental practice in mid-1950s and I arrived on the scene in 1986. I would say we are one of the top three oldest businesses in Martins Ferry, Ohio.

Fortunately, our reputation for treating our patients the “right way” has made the office an asset to the community. I am told we are one of the few dental practices that does not participate on any insurance panel, so we are really fee for service. I never wanted to work “for” an insurance company and I feel our longevity and reputation has afforded us that ability.
